Charge: Voorhees man tried to arrange sex with 14-year-old

RUNNEMEDE – The risk of jail time couldn’t keep a Voorhees man from trying to meet up with an underage girl for sex, authorities said, and neither could a nor’easter.

The Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said authorities arrested 27-year-old Curtis Woods on Friday after he traveled to Runnemede in the middle of a snowstorm but was met by law enforcement officers instead of the teenager he was expecting.

The prosecutor’s High-Tech Crimes Unit made the arrest, marking the third time in two weeks it nabbed someone on charges of trying to lure a minor for sex.
